Instructions for use

1 Safety

Before first starting up

• Note the ”Installation and connection instructions”

• Before first starting up, check the machine for any damage incurred

during transport. Never connect up a damaged machine. If parts are

damaged, contact your supplier.

Intended use

• The dryer is intended for drying standard laundry in domestic appli-

cations.

• Conversions or modifications to the dryer are not permitted.

• The laundry must not contain flammable solvents (benzene,

alcohol, stain remover, etc.) . Risk of fire and/or explosion! Laundry

which has come into contact with such substances must be rinsed

thoroughly by hand before drying.

• When using dry-cleaning sets: Only use those products which are de-

clared as suitable for the dryer by the manufacturer.

• Do not place items of laundry in the dryer which contain foam rubber

or materials similar to rubber. Risk of fire!

• Do not place heavily worn laundry items in the dryer. Risk of fire!

• Do not place laundry items with loose fillings (e.g. cushions) in the

dryer. Risk of fire!

• Parts with rigid components (e.g. door mats) may cover the air slots.

Risk of fire! Do not place such items in the dryer.

• Do not overfill the dryer. Risk of fire! Observe max. loading volume of

6 kg.

• Ensure that explosive objects (e.g. cigarette lighters, spray cans, etc.)

do not enter the dryer with the laundry. Risk of fire and/or explo-

sion!

• Clean the micro-fine filter and fine strainer after each drying cycle.

• Do not use the machine if there are no lint filters or if these are dam-

aged. Risk of fire!

• Risk of fire: items that have been spotted or soaked with vegetable or

cooking oil constitute a fire hazard and should not be placed in the

tumble dryer.

• If you have washed your laundry with stain remover you must exe-

cute an extra rinse cycle before loading your tumble dryer.

• Clean the fluff filter in the base of the appliance regularly.

• With stacked washer and dryer: Do not place objects on the dryer.

These may fall off during operation.

• The covering bonnet of the bulb for the drum light must be screwed

down tightly.

Child safety

• Keep packaging away from children. Risk of suffocation!

• Children can often not see the dangers associated with electric ma-

chines. Never leave unsupervised children near the dryer.

• Ensure that children and small animals cannot climb into the dryer’s

drum. Risk of death! Keep the dryer door shut whenever it is not be-

ing used.

General safety

• Only specialists may undertake repairs on the dryer.

• Never start up the dryer if the mains cable is damaged or if the oper-

ating screen, operating plate or base area are damaged so that the in-

side of the machine is open and accessible.

• Switch off the dryer before all cleaning, care or maintenance work.

Also disconnect the mains plug from the socket or – with permanent

connections – switch off the LS switch in the fuse box and/or fully

unscrew the screwed-in fuse.

• Disconnect the machine from the power supply during long pauses in

operations.

• When removing from the socket, never pull the mains plug by the ca-

ble, instead take a hold of the plug.

• Manifold plugs, couplings and extension cables must not be used.

Risk of fire from overheating!

• Do not spray down the dryer with jets of water. Risk of electric shock!

• Do not lean on the open door. The machine may tip over.

• Once the drying cycle has been interrupted, the laundry and drum

may be hot. Risk of burns! Take care when removing the laundry.

plug. Destroy loading door lock. Children cannot then lock themselves

in the machine and put their lives at risk.

2 Environmental tips

• In the dryer, laundry becomes fluffy and soft. Fabric softeners are not

therefore needed when washing.

• Your dryer will function most economically if you:

– always keep the ventilation slots on the base of the dryer unob-

structed;

– use the loading volumes specified in the programme overview;

– ensure you have good ventilation in the installation room;

– clean the micro-fine filter and fine strainer after each drying cycle;

– spin the laundry well before drying. Example: Consumption data –

depending on spinning speed – for 6kg of laundry, dried using the

COTTONS STORAGE DRY (BAUMWOLLE SCHRANKTROCKEN) programme.

Before the first drying cycle

If the appliance was not transported in an upright position, leave it to

stand for 12 hours before connecting it to the electricity supply and us-

ing it for the first time, so that the oil can flow back to the compressor.

Otherwise the compressor could be damaged.

1. In order to remove any residue which may have been produced during

production, wipe the dryer drum with a damp cloth or undertake a

brief drying cycle (30 MIN) with damp cloths.

Sorting and preparing laundry

Sorting laundry

• Sort by fabric type:

– Cotton/linen for programmes in COTTONS (BAUMWOLLE) pro-

gramme group.

– Mixtures and synthetics for programmes in EASY CARES (MISCH-

GEWEBE) programme group.

• Sorting by care label. The care labels mean:

• Do not dry new, coloured textiles together with light-coloured laun-

dry items. Textile colours may bleed.

• Do not dry tricot or knitted items with the EXTRA DRY (EXTRA

TROCKEN) programme. Items may become stuck!

• Wool and wool-like textiles can be dried using the WOOL (WOLLE)

programme. Before the drying cycle spin the woollen textiles as well

as possible (max. 1200 rpm). Only dry woollen textiles together which

are similar or the same with respect to material, colour and weight.

Please dry heavy laundry items made of wool separately.

Preparing laundry

• To avoid laundry becoming tangled: Close zips, button up coverings

and tie loose bands or ribbons (e.g. of aprons).

• Empty pockets. Remove metallic items (paperclips, safety pins etc).

• Turn items with double-layered fabrics inside out (e.g. with cotton-

lined anoraks, the cotton layer should be outermost). These fabrics

will then dry better.

of the drying cycle is lengthened by 60 minutes. The laundry can be re-

moved at any time during the anti-crease phase.

AUDIBLE SIGNAL (SIGNAL)

When the drying cycle has finished, an intermittent acoustic signal will

sound.

Setting time delay

3 With the DELAY TIMER (ZEITVORWAHL) button, you can delay the start

of a programme by between 30 minutes (30' and a maximum of 23

hours (23h).

1. Select the programme

2. Press the DELAY TIMER (ZEITVORWAHL) button as many times as neces-

sary until the required start delay appears on the multi display, e.g. 12h

if the programme is to be started in 12 hours. The DELAY TIMER

(ZEITVORWAHL) display is illuminated.

(KNITTERSCHUTZ) displays light up. If the AUDIBLE SIGNAL (SIGNAL)

button has been pressed, an audible signal sounds intermittently.

3 The drying cycles (except for the WOOL programme) are automatically

followed by a crease guard phase which lasts around 30 minutes. The

drum rotates in intervals during this phase. The laundry thereby re-

mains relaxed and free of creases. The laundry can be removed at any

time during the crease guard phase. (The laundry should be taken out

towards the end of the crease guard phase at the latest to prevent

creases from forming.)

If LONG ANTICREASE (KNITTERSCHUTZ +) has been selected, the anti-

crease phase is lengthened by 60 minutes.

1. Open loading door

2. Before removing the laundry, remove lint from the micro-fine filter. It is

best to use a damp hand for this purpose (refer to “Cleaning and main-

tenance” section).

3. Remove laundry.

4. Turn the programme selector to OFF (AUS).

Important! After each drying cycle

– clean the micro-fine filter and fine strainer,

– drain the condensate tank

(refer to the “Cleaning and maintenance” section).

5. Close loading door.

Cleaning and maintenance

Cleaning fluff filter

To ensure that the dryer works perfectly, the fluff filters (micro-fine fil-

ter and fine strainer) must be cleaned after every drying cycle.

1 Caution! Never operate the dryer without fluff filters or with damaged

or blocked fluff filters.

1. Open loading door

2. Use a damp hand to clean the mi-

cro-fine filter, which is built into

the lower part of the loading aper-

ture.

3. Push down unlock button on large

mesh filter.

Large mesh filter jumps up.

4. Take out fine strainer.

5. Remove fluff from fine strainer. It

is best to use a damp hand for this

purpose.

Clean the entire filter area

3 The strainer area does not have to be cleaned after every drying cycle,

but should be checked regularly and cleaned of fluff if necessary.

6. To do this, grip the top of the large

mesh filter and pull it forwards un-

til it comes loose from the two

brackets.

7. Remove fluff from the entire filter

area. It is best to use a vacuum

cleaner for this purpose.

8. Press both journals of the large

mesh filter into the brackets on the

loading door until they snap into

place.

9. Re-insert fine strainer.

10. Press against the large mesh filter

until it locks into the interlock.

3 If the fine strainer is not fitted, the

large mesh filter will not snap into

place and the loading door cannot

be closed.

Cleaning the door seal

Wipe the door seal with a damp cloth immediately after the drying cy-

cle has finished.

Emptying the condensate tank

Empty condensate tank after every drying cycle.

If the condensate tank is full, an active programme will break off auto-

matically and the EMPTY WATER (BEHÄLTER) display will light up. In or-

der to continue the programme, the condensate tank must first be

emptied.

1 Warning! The condensate is not suitable for drinking or for preparing

foodstuffs.

1. Pull drawer containing condensate

tank out all the way (1). Pull out

condensate tank’s outlet connec-

tions (2).

2. Pour condensate out into basin or

other suitable container.

3. Slide outlet connections in and re-

fit condensate tank.

If the programme has been inter-

rupted as a result of the conden-

sate tank being full:

Press the START/PAUSE button to

continue the drying cycle.

3 The condensate tank has a volume of approx. 4 litres. This is sufficient

for around 6kg of laundry which has previously been spun at 800 revo-

lutions/minute.

3 The condensate can be used as distilled water, e.g. for steam ironing.

However first filter the condensate (e.g. with a coffee filter) to remove

any residue and small pieces of fluff.

Cleaning the fluff filter

If the indicator CLEAN FILTER BASE (SIEB SOCKEL) lights up, the fluff

filter and the filter mat in the base of the appliance must be cleaned.

3 To protect the heat pump from dirt, the dryer is fitted with a special fil-

ter mat, which is located in the filter housing. Here too large amounts

of fluff build up over time, which affect the function of the appliance.

1 Important

• Operating when the fluff filter is clogged with fluff can damage the

dryer. This also increases energy consumption.

• Never operate the dryer without the fluff filters.

• Do not use the dryer without the filter mat. A dirty heat pump re-

quires more energy and can only be cleaned up by means of a costly

process.

1. Open door.

2. Open door in plinth: To do this,

press the release button on the

bottom of the door aperture and

open the door in the plinth to the

left.

3. Pull filter housing out of the base

by the handle.

4. Clean the inside of the door, the

fluff filter chamber and the rubber

seals of fluff.

5. Remove fluff from the fluff filter

on the floor of the base with a

damp hand.

6. To clean the filter mat:

Remove filter mat from filter hous-

ing. To do this, press the pressure

points on the sides and pull the fil-

ter mat and frame up and out of

the housing.

7. Take the filter mat out of the frame

and wash it by hand or use a vacu-

um cleaner, when it is has dried

out. Fluff, which has become stuck

in the filter mat and has not been

removed by washing, does not affect the function.

8. Insert the filter mat in the frame

and then insert with the frame into

the filter housing.

1 Important: The filter mat must en-

gage tightly with the frame. Check

that the mat is sitting snuggly in

the frame, especially after inserting

it into the filter housing.

9. As necessary, approx. once every 6

months, remove the fluff from the

heat exchanger using the sponge

supplied. When doing this, please

use rubber gloves.

Tip: The fluff can be removed more
